November 18, 1946 - January 16, 2021
Eugene Clifton “Buddy” Acey, 74, of Carrollton, MS, born on November 18, 1946, passed away Saturday, January 16, 2021, at Greenwood Leflore Hospital with his family by his side. He was a graduate of Vaiden High School, class of 1966, and a longtime member of Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church. Buddy loved anything and everything to do with his family. If he was in town, you could bet he was watching whatever sport the grandkids were playing. He was a well-known guy around Carroll Academy, serving as President of the Booster Club for years alongside his friends, who worked diligently to improve the sports programs. He was an avid storyteller and his laugh was contagious.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Aubrey and Elizabeth Acey; his in-laws, Big Bud and Loree Montgomery; and his sister, Mary Elizabeth Castilla.
He is survived by his wife of 51 years, Polly Montgomery Acey of Carrollton, MS; his son, Scott Acey (Stacie) of Carrollton, MS; daughters, Laura Clark (Mark) of Carrollton, MS, and Paige Singleton of Benton, AR; grandchildren, Dylan Singleton, Ashley Clark, Raney Singleton, Kalie Teal, Sam Clark, Jack Teal, Sally Acey, Ava Singleton, and Asa Clark; and siblings, Ruth McClain, John Wayne Acey, Charles Acey, Barbara Smith, Linda Logue, Debra Acey, and Donna Wenger.
Serving as pallbearers will be Sam Clark, Jack Teal, Asa Clark, Alex Montgomery, Justin Acey, Mike Montgomery, Ryan Montgomery, and Erby Montgomery. Honorary Pallbearers will be Dylan Singleton, Raney Singleton, Phillip Evans, and William Ray Evans.
Graveside Services will be held on Monday, January 18, 2021, at 2:00 pm at Mt. Pisgah Cemetery. Rev. Jerry McNeer will officiate the services. Williams and Lord Funeral Home are in charge of the arrangements. An online guestbook may be signed at www.willliamsandlord.com.
